Shop 4 A Cause + Wheat Bran Recipe
Goooooood morning Vietnam!! (I was channeling my inner Michael Scott, channeling his inner Robin Williams :))
Hope everyone’s week is going well. We’re halfway through, and Memorial Day Weekend is in sight. My weekend will be spent working, what a surprise 😀 Good thing I like my jobs.
Make sure to stop by Angela’s blog, Oh She Glows and bid on one of the items for Shop 4 A Cause. 100% of the proceeds go to cancer research, and I have donated a month of nutritional and fitness coaching. Bid on anything you like, there are a TON of things to bid on!!! All items start at $20!!
Last night, I decided to try something. Wheat bran is full of fiber and really good for the digestive system. It tastes like…well kinda like sawdust 🙂 I decided to make it into a “flat bread” and see what happened. The verdict? GOOD.
Wheat Bran Flat Bread
Ingredients:
Wheat Bran – As much as you want. I used about 1/4 cup
Water – Enough to wet the wheat bran, but not have any leftover water.
Spices- whatever you want! I used garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper and some other seasoning(can’t remember what it was)
Mix everything up, and spread it on either parchment paper(if microwaving) or on aluminum foil(if baking.) Make the layer as thin or as thick as you want, and cook until it is hard.
Then eat it. Fiberlicious !
This recipe is similar to the EZ Whey Flax Cracker. Check out her book yo!
Workout
Today’s workout was Chest and Abs. Not very exciting, but it was good nonetheless. I got both cardio sessions in and I’m feeling great. I will be off work soon and then working later at my other job. Cleaning and packing in between(I move on June 3rd to a new house :)).
Thanks for the feedback on my prep update! Let me know if you have any questions about anything. I’m always happy to answer 🙂
Oh that flat bread sounds yummy. I bet you could add in ground flax too….Need to give it a try. Thanks for sharing the Shop 4 a Cause link.
Didn’t you just move!! You are going to get good at packing!! :>

adventures in tri-ing
I’ve been using wheat bran ( big difference from wheat germ ) as a cereal in the morning. I add wheat bran, ground flax seed, protein powder with cinnamon and almond breeze. Sometimes instead of cinnamon I se cocoa. A bit to get used to, but majorly filling with your days worth of fiber in one bowl.
sounds yummy!
